The blank map of India is a printable political map that draws the borders of the states and union territories, in black and white with no names on them, sized for A4 and printing on US Letter. Download it free as a PDF or a JPEG, either as the blank version with state borders or as a plain India outline map with the country outline only.
Because the map is unlabeled, it works as a base for practice: students fill in the states, their capitals, the rivers and the mountain ranges themselves, and teachers use the same sheet for map quizzes, homework and school projects. It pairs well with our India map worksheets, and with the labeled political map of India when you need the names for reference.
For the wider region, use the blank map of Asia, or browse the other blank country maps.
The image below shows the printable outline map of India.

India Blank Map Bundle and More
The blank map and the outline map are free. The bundle adds more versions of the same map:
- Blank map of India with states and union territories
- India outline map
- Blank map of India with neighboring countries
- Blank map of India with state capitals
- Blank map of India with cities
- Political India map for reference
The bundle includes PDF and JPEG versions of all maps.
The two free downloads are the blank map, which draws the borders of the states and union territories, and the outline map, which has the country outline only. The capital and city markers are part of the bundle: dots placed on the map without any names, so the sheet still works as an exercise rather than an answer key.

About India's States and Geography
India covers about 3.29 million square kilometres, which makes it the seventh largest country in the world, and with roughly 1.4 billion people it is the most populous. The Himalaya form its northern wall, where Kangchenjunga rises to 8,586 metres on the border with Nepal, while the Deccan Plateau fills the south between the Western and Eastern Ghats. The Ganges runs about 2,525 kilometres across the northern plains, the Thar Desert covers much of Rajasthan, and the coastline stretches some 7,500 kilometres along the Arabian Sea, the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal. India shares land borders with six countries: Pakistan, China, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Myanmar. Those are the features students are usually asked to place, which is why an unlabeled base map is more useful for practice than a finished one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions people ask most about the free blank map of India.
How many states and union territories does India have?
India has 28 states and 8 union territories. Each state has its own capital, and Chandigarh serves as the capital of both Haryana and Punjab while also being a union territory itself.
Can I print the map of India in A4 size?
Yes, every file is sized for A4 and prints on US Letter without cropping. The PDF keeps its line quality when enlarged, so the same download also works for a poster-size print or a classroom wall chart.
What is the difference between the blank map and the outline map?
The blank map draws the borders between the states and union territories without naming them, so it works as a political map to label. The outline map has no internal borders at all, just the outline of the country.
Is the blank map of India free to download?
Yes, the blank map and the outline map are free in PDF and JPEG, with no sign-up. The bundle with the capital markers, the city markers and the neighboring countries is a small one-off price.

What Can I Do with a Blank Map?
Blank maps are a great way to visualize geography, get a feel for regions and borders, and see how places relate to one another. They also bring presentations, travel journals, and creative projects to life by giving you a clear, flexible canvas to work with.
Maybe you’re a teacher planning your next lesson or preparing homework assignments. Maybe you’re a parent putting together practice materials at home. Or you’re a student preparing for an exam or working on a school project. Perhaps you’re a globetrotter writing down your travel memories or dreaming up your next adventure. In all these cases, a blank map is surprisingly versatile and can be used in many different ways.
In class, students can color blank maps and label countries, capitals, mountains, rivers, or oceans. They can illustrate shifting borders and historical events, making subjects like geography and history easier to grasp.
Blank maps are also excellent for creating tests and worksheets. From simple labeling exercises to detailed quizzes, they can be adapted to a wide variety of content. On a blank map of Europe, for example, students can mark mountain ranges like the Alps and the Pyrenees, as well as the continent’s major rivers. Or, in history class, they can mark the borders before and after World War I. In English class, an outline map can be used to show all the English-speaking countries of the world. Current events are also easy to track by shading in countries or specific regions.
Blank maps are helpful for presentations, homework, or exam prep. Combined with labeled maps, they make effective geography quizzes and reinforce knowledge through coloring and labeling.
With a little creativity, globetrotters can quickly transform blank maps into personalized travel journals. Mark the places you’ve been, trace your routes, and jot down a special memory for each destination. Print a second map and use it as a bucket list for everywhere you still want to see.
They’re also useful outside the classroom. In a business presentation, they can be used to show sales territories, office locations, or planned expansions. You can also print blank maps in a large format and hang them on the wall. With pins, stickers, labels, or photos, they can be personalized to display a wide range of content.
For any purpose, WMB Maps provides a wide selection of blank maps designed to help you achieve your learning or creative goals.
